<H1>Research</H1>

I helped design and develop a lisp-based statistical package called <A
HREF="http://eksl-www.cs.umass.edu/research/clip-clasp-details.html#clasp">Clasp</A>,
as part of the <A
HREF="http://eksl-www.cs.umass.edu/research/clip-clasp-overview.html">Clip/Clasp</A>
project. The goal of this work is to provide support of empirical AI
research.<P>

I am currently working on an extension of the <A
HREF="/research/projects/ai/www/bur.html">Buridan</A> and <A
HREF="/research/projects/ai/www/cbur.html">C-Buridan</A> planners.  These
planners are based on decision theory and incorporate a probabilistic view of
planning and plan execution.
